Well, thanks for that - techno is not my favourite kind of music (apart from Jean Michel Jarre or Kraftwerk) ; I am a Beatles fan, but I will listen out for Iio in future, or ask one of my local radio station disc jockeys to play me some of their music and I will let you know if I DO like it!

I don't know if they still work together, actually. They only have a few songs that were ever really popular (Rapture was probably their most famous) and I haven't heard anything from them in a long time. You can find them on youtube easily, in case you're curious. I just like the way they spell the name haha

Great drawing! Which language does the name come from if you don't pronounce the firsr "i"? If it is something you have made up, congratulations on using a word that has three letters, but no consonants!

Thank you! Well, I know Io is a Greek name that belonged to a character in one specific story, and that Iio is the name of a techno band which just hapens to be pronounced the same way. I liked the way it looked with two I's so I chose to spell it like that.

Thank you! I'm very proud of that, too, after all the years trying to come up with something a little different.
You most certainly may, I would love to see her drawn by others!

Thank you so much!
I don't really know, but I do know that Io was a character in Greek mythology. I googled it and found no actual meaning, just the story behind the woman. But I remember I read the name somewhere and loved it. I'm probably going to make a male character and I was considering whether to continue the Greek name thing and name him Eros haha or something like that.

omigawsh thats awesome! i love the head design particularyily (??) the hair and the ears, markings and whiskers are what i like the best!
though (and this is just my opinion) the ankles look a little awekward and the tail a little skinny at the base. but that could be just me. Great job!! i look forward to seeing more of these guys! or girls...
